With this episode, we hope to calm your nerves wherever or whenever you might be listening. We've got Sharon Salzberg, a legendary Buddhist meditation expert that Tyler's been digitally learning from for years.

Sharon tells us how trauma she experienced within her family of origin eventually set her on a path of learning and teaching Buddhism. The practices she's learned along the way have helped her (and those she's taught!) to turn moments of challenge and personal suffering into opportunities for compassion.

Sharon also gives us some tools to navigate difficult conversations and apply forgiveness to our interpersonal interpersonal relationships. Plus, she leads a short guided meditation at the very end of the episode, hopefully sending you off into the best day possible.

Thank you for sharing your story and teachings, Sharon!
